    Remark:
    I already have a pair of German editions representing the original German texts and illustrations of the 1757 translation of Samuel Richardson's 1749 London edition, Aesop's Fables, with Instructive Morals and Reflections, Abstracted from all Party Considerations, Adapted to All Capacities; and Designed to Promote Religion, Morality, and Universal Benevolence. Now there is a title! The title of the present book also runs further: Mit dienlichen Betrachtungen zur Beförderung der Religion und der allgemeinen Menschenliebe vorgestellet. What does this book offer that the other two do not? It is a Faksimile nach einem Exemplar der Erstausgabe from the Sächsische Landesbibliothek Dresden. Everything is presented here as it was in 1757. The images in particular are often superior to the reproductions in those volumes. The images occur in groups of six gathered without spacing between them on a single page. Neither the original 1757 German edition nor this reproduction appears in Bodemann, though the 1749 edition, published in London by J. Osborne, appears as #131.1. A reprinting by T. Wilson and R. Spence in York in 1753 appears as #131.2. The texts are presented here, as in the original, in Gothic script. There is an AI at the end. There are two hundred and forty prose fables. This book comes boxed with a paperbound Nachwort zur Faksimileausgabe by Thomas Höhle, also from Insel-Verlag in 1977. See my comments on it.
